The people who rounded up the signatures totally lied about their intent – how do we file a complaint and get our name removed?
Petitions had the statement of intention and ordinance attached. Sounds like you signed your name without reading it. Fault is with you, not the signature gatherer.

Lesson learned… Don’t sign anything you don’t completely understand.
The citizens do not want ugly electronic billboards. The city has been defeated in its money grab. The city lied to its citizens. The billboard petition was not a lie.
The city council has two choices.
1. Put the billboard deal up to a vote by the people.
2. Drop the billboard deal
The legal short 30 day petition signature gathering process, and the illegal Allvision blockers were a big hurdle to overcome. I believe that the illegal Allvision blockers actually made more people angry to sign the petition.
Since so many people signed, the city council will not put it up to an expensive election that they will loose. So adios to electrionic billboards.
They still need to take down the old billboards and move all the powerlines underground whether they put up those digital billboards or not. Imagine how much better that scene would look without the billboards and powerlines.
I read it as best I could in the midst of traffic flowing around me at Stater Bros. My signature was for the chance to VOTE on the issue, not have the issue removed all together. They misrepresented themselves and used the distractions to their advantage, but thanks for making me seem like an ignorant ass.

The signature gatherers who gained signatures by stopping people walking to their vehicles with groceries, should be held accountable. They told a lady in front of me 1 day that the signatures were to remove old billboards around town. Seems shady to me. Who is going to take the time to read with groceries in the cart that need to get in the fridge?
I doubt these people signed their names on the billboard referendum. They are using the standard city excuses of misrepresentation and misinformed.
It is up to the City Council to decide if there will be a vote, or they will revoke the digital billboard deal completely. If they decide to put the digital billboard deal to a vote, they will have to use public funds.
The public will again defeat the “digital billboard deal” that the City Council approved after receiving $$$$ from allvision.
